Late to the game largely due to this fruit, which I’ll be tweeting about, since I’m on the bus on my way to the sports bar.

So I’m walking down the street conveniently by the tree that my neighbor said I can take fruit from and I spot another neighbor in the tree.pic.twitter.com/2YOgNPmQ2n

These fruits are hard to find. I’ve never seen them in a US market and I know people purposefully plant them for themselves and friends.

So my neighbor and I are up in the tree; a man pulls up in a truck and asks to buy some. Lol. He’s from Honduras says they’re called guama.

I've heard/seen guama or guaba (not guava - I often got it confused as a kid lol).

Both my parents are Colombian - fairly certain my maternal abuela called it guaba.
